I messed up a furnace-design in my game and ended up having to manually remove Iron from the output and insert it in the input, After I was done all furnaces started smelting exept one.

After I grabbed the stack of iron in the input and reinserted it in the furnace it started smelting it again.
I have tried to reproduce and have been unable to.
It is probaly just an case of clicking too fast but heres the save if you guys want to take a look at it.

Re: [0.12.7] Furnace doesn't smelt
So what did you do prior to this happening? Any way I can reproduce it myself?
Re: [0.12.7] Furnace doesn't smelt
I dont know exactly what timeframe you want from me but ill do my best
I was setting up a ( flawed ) furnace design to produce steel, I dont know what I was doing before that.
I can't remember the detail of it but the furnaces that were supposed to smelt steel were smelting iron, I thought I could fix it by inserting Iron plates into the furnace and removing the stack of iron that had been smelted by that furnace ( plus one Iron inside the progress bar ) after that all furnaces smelted their steel and placed it on a belt. ( I think there were two stuck furnaces at first but I messed that one up )
I tried to replicate it by inserting 100 Iron in the output, one Iron ore for the progress bar then placing an additional stack of iron in the input and remove the stack of iron the furnace had "Smelted".
this is how I removed and inserted it into the furnace when one of the furnaces got stuck

Re: [0.12.7] Furnace doesn't smelt
Well, I've tried various way of letting the furnace first smelt iron ore to plates and then switch it to steel plates, but I can't reproduce it. Just seeing the furnace not work doesn't tell me anything about why it doesn't work.
Maybe someone else will have an idea what's wrong here.

Re: [0.12.7] Furnace doesn't smelt
I've actually had this happen before, but I didn't think much of it. I suspected it had something to do with an internal buffer plate after the smelter reaches 100 not being cleared if the input changes without output, so it's stuck wanting to smelt something but can't because the buffer plate is different than the input. Perhaps this is impossible, I don't know how furnaces work. I think I wound up just removing and replacing the problem furnaces.
Re: [0.12.7] Furnace doesn't smelt
Well I will move this to pending as.
- This error is not critical, and obviously very rare
- There is no more info about this
- We will just wait until it happens again to someone, so we have more clues
